Question Bumper Question

We are building a bot with an opening in the front for the ball to enter inside. Upon reading the rules, we found out that each side of the bot must be covered with at least 8 inches of bumper from every corner, unless one of your sides is less than 8 inches, in which case that entire side must be covered. Does this mean that we have to build our bot in such a way that on each side of the gap, there has to be 8 inches of bumper, or does the gap effectively create two separate sides of the bot and we can have shorter bumpers that are less than 8 inches?
